In 2015 his recording of Grieg's Piano Concerto, accompanied by the BBC Symphony Orchestra under Sakari Oramo, coupled with a selection of the composer's Lyric Pieces was issued. Quote from the Michael Kennedy of the Sunday Telegraph regarding his Schubert CD (Harmonia Mundi):"This young Spanish pianist proves himself a natural Schubertian in the Impromptus (D 899). He is beautifully recorded so that his playing can be fully appreciated. The disc also includes the Klavierstücke (D 946) and the less well-known Allegretto in C minor (D 915), a wonderful piece all the more compelling for being understated. Perianes's playing captures its magic to perfection."
